The document has been finalized and replaces QAMS-004/80. R-2 parallels the implementation requirements for QMPs contained in the EPA Quality Manual for Environmental Programs (EPA Order 5360.1), an internal policy manual.

QA/G-8 provides non-mandatory guidance to assist users in verifying and validating environmental data. The guidance discusses alternative approaches to data validation, including examples of statistics-based validation techniques, and options for verifying that the validated data satisfy relevant claims about their authenticity and quality.
